OTHER DEFINTIONS; naming There are two main prize flight attempts in the CHALLENGE, each of which is a timed 200 statute mile flight. These main prize flight attempts are named as follows: 1) the Passenger-MPGe flight attempt will be named the “MPG Flight”; and, 2) the mph flight attempt will be named the “Speed Flight”. The MPG Flight will be flown 2 days prior to the Speed Flight. 2 ELIGIBILITY 2.1 Team Eligibility A TEAM is an individual or private entity, or a group of individuals or private entities that register to participate in CHALLENGE. A TEAM is comprised of a TEAM LEADER and TEAM MEMBERS. A TEAM LEADER is, by definition, also a TEAM MEMBER. The TEAM LEADER is a single private entity or individual which is the sole agent representing TEAM regarding its participation in CHALLENGE. In the case of the TEAM LEADER that is a private entity, it must appoint an individual who is an officer of the private entity to represent the TEAM LEADER. To be eligible to win any CHALLENGE prize, an individual or entity, a) in the case of a private entity, shall be incorporated in and maintain a primary place of business in the United States, and b) in the case of an individual, whether participating individually or as a member of a group, shall be a citizen or permanent resident of the United States and shall have served as TEAM leader for no less than 6 months prior to the start of the 2011 CGFC. TEAM MEMBERS are participants on the TEAM who are not the TEAM LEADER. All TEAM MEMBERS will apply to CAFE to register for the CHALLENGE through TEAM LEADER and must receive written acceptance by CAFE in order to participate with their TEAM. All TEAM MEMBERS must execute an “Adoption of Agreement”, as set forth in Exhibit A, committing to all terms of this AGREEMENT. By signing below, TEAM LEADER represents that all TEAM MEMBERS have executed the Adoption of Agreement and that no one else will become a member of the TEAM or participate in the CHALLENGE until such new TEAM MEMBER has signed this Agreement. CAFE may disqualify any TEAM if it discovers that a person is acting as a TEAM MEMBER who has not signed 6
an “Adoption of Agreement”. TEAM LEADER will provide CAFE with a copy of the "Adoption of Agreement" signed by each TEAM MEMBER. TEAM MEMBERS may NOT participate in the CHALLENGE on more than one TEAM. Any U.S. Government entity is ineligible for the prize competition. Any organization principally or substantially funded by the Federal Government, including Federally Funded Research and Development Centers, Government-owned, contractor operated (GOCO) facilities, and University Affiliated Research Centers, must have their eligibility to compete in the CHALLENGE pre-determined by CAFE. The principle to be used in such determination is to assure no unfair advantage to any TEAM. U.S. Government employees (including employees of Federally Funded Research and Development Centers, Government-owned, contractor-operated facilities, and University Affiliated Research Centers) must have their eligibility to compete in the CHALLENGE pre-determined by CAFE. U.S. government employees may not be acting within the scope of their employment. The principle to be used in such determination is to assure no unfair advantage to any TEAM. Board members of CAFE are not eligible to participate in the CHALLENGE. 2.2 Aircraft and Hardware Eligibility Aircraft and aircraft parts that were manufactured and assembled in foreign countries can be used to win any CGFC prize by TEAM(s) that has valid eligibility as defined herein. Any aircraft or Vehicle whose design or construction is deemed by CAFE to have been principally or substantially funded by any Government may be ineligible to participate in the CHALLENGE, other than as a possible exhibition. Determination of such eligibility will be made by CAFE. The principle to be used in such determination is to assure no unfair advantage to any TEAM. 2.3 Financing TEAM shall not obtain any government (federal, state, local or foreign) funding for purposes of participation in the CHALLENGE. 2.4 Uses of Federal Resources TEAM is permitted to use or pay for the use of U.S. Government facilities, personnel, hardware, or information previously developed by the U.S. Government if access to such is available on an open, cooperative, nonexclusive, or reimbursable basis. 7
